Salkafar is absolutely right. If they are going to make a remake, it should be to fix a mistake. Sure, there were movie mistakes (such as the window behind Murphy not shattering when the gangsters unleashed a hail storm or bullets in his direction), but not many people really notice them. If they want to do a remake, they should remake Robocop 3. Sure, the kid drug dealer in 2 sounded a little odd, but it was at least making a point. 3 was just people cashing in, and making it safe for children. 3 said NOTHING, took no real risks, and was terrible. Bring out the old costume and do it right. Why waste the rest of the franchise? Kids may not have been exposed to the classics, but is the answer to remake them? Why no simply show them in theater again? In Vancouver they play them. Lawrence of Arabia is playing soon, and I just watched Ghostbusters on the big screen for the first time

The cast looks cool, but has anyone seen the new suit? It looks like rubber with spandex showing through. I like the black glass mask (with red eye line), and his gun; but the rest just feels like a horrible batman rip off. And seriously, letting him keep a human hand? Please tell me an actor just took a glove off for a second. Hopefully the movie makes up for the crappy costume

Since the latest episode (Inside Job), I've changed the status of Knockout, Smokescreen, and Starscream. Cool episode. They really had Starscream rogue for quite a while. I'm considering changing Bulkheads status back, but I'm not too sure. They really made a big deal about him almost dying, and then suffering from neurological damage that may be permanent. Though his mobility is returning, we're still seeing him be held in reserve. I'll see more episodes to watch how he's used. My personal props to Smokescreen, for most creative use of a phase shifter. Combat has never been more interesting. It was fun to watch Geordi and Ro phase shift in stng, but this takes it to a whole new level.

It depends on composition of the armor, which we don't know about completely. Tekka man armor may have greater thermal and radiation resistance (it is reflective of particles?), or it may be projecting an electromagnetic/zero point energy/anti-gravity shield. A neutrally charged object, such as a fist or frequency sword should be able to penetrate an EM shield. A gravity based pressure canon should be able to penetrate an anti-grav/zero point energy attack. The question then comes to the strength of the armor material itself. Is it elastic at all, can it absorb shocks? How strong are the molecular bonds? Are there any systems reinforcing it? There are many questions to answer regarding this. The guyver's plethora of weapons give a higher chance of success at finding a weakness with Tekkaman. Though, since it is fictional we would need the author to reveal more about the composition and structure of the unit before any real speculation could be made. I don't know Tekkaman though, so I can't really estimate his stats for comparison

I liked the Freedom arms gun. It's a real world gun, and shows Takaya is doing some actual research for this story. And it shows just how durable zoanoids are. Without that gun, someone could just say 'Use armor piercing rounds'! But now we know that it wouldn't work. At that point Sho and Tetsuo hadn't much experience with zoanoids and guns together, so it was still a possibility. The real world gun helped me feel the story was a bit more real. world building and all. Not just random masturbation on the page-like dragon ball where power levels just go up to excite the fanboys.

could have sworn I started a thread related to this already... oh well. Can't find it.<br /> <br /> Time for a Transformers Prime character status list:<br /> Autobots-<br /> Optimus Prime-Active<br /> Ratchet-Active<br /> Arcee-Active<br /> Bulkhead-Disabled list<br /> Bumblebee-Active<br /> Smokescreen-Active<br /> Wheeljack-Rogue<br /> Cliffjumper-KIA<br /> Seaspray-KIA<br /> Alpha Trion-Unknown<br /> Tailgate-KIA<br /> <br /> Humans-<br /> Jack-Active<br /> Miko-Active<br /> Raphael-Relocated<br /> Fowler-Active<br /> Cylus-Deceaced<br /> <br /> Decepticons-<br /> Megatron-Active<br /> Starscream-Active<br /> Dreadwing-KIA<br /> Shockwave-Unknown<br /> Skyquake-KIA<br /> Makeshift-KIA<br /> Kockout-Disabled<br /> Aracknid-POW<br /> Breakdown-KIA<br /> Hardshell-KIA<br /> Soundwave-Active

Instead of worrying about community, why not consider family? Well, family may be too strong, as I'd say we are more a group of friends and brothers. A Clique maybe? Peers? An Openly exclusive club? I don't need to hang around with a million people to be happy. I just need a million or so people to see my work. RHM (You'll all understand later)

So what you are saying is, switching this from the 'Guyver board' to the Japan legend board was a mistake? That Guyver is still the true reason for this site? I can agree. Other boards already exist for generic Japanese fandom, and we are the Guyver community. Granted, there's not a lot to talk about at the moment. No tv series, no figures, no movies, no real major drama happening. Tetsuo must die! That'll get the fans talking, unless it's too late.

Imakarum and Guyot had to launch their 'Gravity Points' in order to generate a mini-black hole. It was as if the Gravity Points were like batteries, or bullet clips. I suspect that a Chronos facilty had to manufacture them for implantation into the Zoalord. I guess Chronos hasn't quite mastered the Uranos Gravity Controller technology yet

what if you tag your other thread onto this one, as Thunderfoot is explaining why water is so prevalent in our life, and you are suggesting something else be used for lower temperatures. I think he pointed out that it's not just water's temperature, but it's size and bondability, and polarity. The molecule is funky. Finding a replacement is probably a little more complex than sliding everything on the periodic table just one square over (after all, this isn't a cheesy sci-fi movie ala 'Evolution').

There are 2 Hovinds. Kent, and his son Eric. After Kent went to prison, his son Eric turned the family business into a formal charity which means that it must report its income publicly, and is in the millions. Kent claims to have a doctorate, but never mentions it is in religion (I believe) despite making claims about the other sciences. Eric at least has some education in geology (I think), if only he'd use it. Kent is infamous for putting out creationist theories without doing any actual math on them, or experiments, or any form of testing whatsoever. He announces them publicly, and uses them to ridicule mainstream scientific theories. His son does the same thing, but to a lesser extent in my opinion. You can see for yourself, and purchase any number of their many dvds. Here is a sample of Kent being tackled: And for fun:

Just as a superconductor is great a generating funky magnetic fields, the gravity controller is great at punching a hole in the dimensional barrier which unleashes a shadow of gravity field the various organs on the armor can feed off of. A singularity is supposed to be vary similar to a wormhole (the very inspiration for it), and is normally generated by extreme density. Extreme speed can generate extreme mass for the time dilation effect. Are we seeing a combination of these principals on the micro/nanoscopic level? Is a micro blackhole being generated within the gravity controller?

technically all objects experience time dilation at all speeds. The effect is just so small on the human scale we don't notice it. It is indeed a function of mass, but I don't think the unit-G's stasis field is using traditional time dilation. In order to reach a frozen state, you would probably be experiencing black hole level mass. Perhaps the unit-G shell is creating a dimensional shadow so that it both experiences the mass, and does not. I would have no idea how to do that exactly, but it sounds exotic enough to be scifi. So its the best answer I can give for the moment.

I love this video. Thunderfoot explains things so well. I love his videos

Argumentative because I'm trying to challenge you as much as I possibly can. At some point you should be facing some difficult questions. And as a friend I feel this is a life changing decision that you should be challenged on. Are you sure that youre own escapism has not put another culture up on a pedastle? How can a culture be said to have great honor when it still hunts species to extincion for frivialous reasons? Shark fin soup for example, where hard science has shown the fins to be nutritionless, tasteless chunks of cartilage. Or whale hunting, where science is used as a thin excuse even though the answers obtained have long been known. Why should you be -allowed- to live in Japan? How could you possibly support yourself there when you cannot in the UK? (I'm exadurating and being cruel on this one because you will have to answer it at some point) If you can not find adequate income in Japan, what are your plans for supporting yourself?

What are the positives and negatives you were talking about earlier? Is tv such an important part of you life that you would judge the mindset of a people on it? Are you deluding yourself in this regard? Is Startrek an expression of the American mindset? How does rape hentai express honor within Japanese society?

what I don't get. is why aren't you using a reel? A 30 second video featuring the best snippets from all the animation work you have ever done in your life. THAT is a great way to sell yourself. Why talk about your skills when you can simply show them? Make the clip start as soon as the page loads up.

It is interesting that you are useing first person to describe yourself, most other sites of this nature that I see use third person. I don't know if that's good or bad. Don't say anything negative about yourself! Don't mention your limitations, or ask for forgivness. You are not a begging dog, you are a trained professional with skills. Act like it. Have the confidence to back it up, and instill your employers confidence in you. How can they have it if you don't, and why would they hire you if they don't? I can't see youtube from China, but I can see your pics. Take out anything blurry, or with glares from the glass. Maybe mix it up a bit so we can see a variety from the start. Abnd focus on the glory shots. I don't need ten shots of the street in front of your house, but one with the street lights is great. Then show me a view from the Japanese skyscraper. That shows me you are versatile. The cougar was great, but the tiger was behind a cage and suggest you were an amateur that went to the zoo. Lose it, you are the guy that takes risks for a great shot. You can't show me a hundred pics in order to convince me to hire you, you have to narrow it down. You've got stuff in there that can blow the mind, but it's being watered down by the regular shots. Remove the regulars and show the gold. After all, the buisiness will always shoot a million regular shots, but editing is about cutting it to only show a 'moment'. I'd like to talk more, but off to Beijing in just a bit.

Many of us refer to the OVA for saying the Guyver feeds off the host for energy, but the VDF that Takaya wrote explains so much of the energy systems as being based on the gravity controller. Is it possible to get an accurate translation of that part of the anime, because it always gets us into a tizzy. Guyot's comment about the host's energy being a limiting factor always throws us off. What is he exactly saying word for word in Japanese?

Sorry, got a bit carried away. You were suggesting the tendrils going in to manipulate, and pieces of the armor inside each cell, so I was saying how that might not be necessary to that degree and was trying to explain. By the host's circulatory system, you mean beefing up the muscles in the heart, and possibly strengthening the blood vessels to withstand extra pressure?

The Metal Plates: The Control Metal is attached to the parasite, forcing it to act in certain ways. I suspect the Control Metal forced the parasite to excrete the correct materials in such a fashion as to generate a shell with the stasis field generation property. Weather of not the data for the construction of the shell is in the Control Metal or the Unit Remover, I don't know; nor do I see any way of telling for sure, so it would be a mute point for me to guess at this time unless we have miraculous new info coming out (such as a host dieing off and the unit returning to Unit-G state). In one animation though, when activated the shell plating popped off and then evaporated. As for the host's organs being boosted, Takaya said most of them are 'digressed' as they become essentially useless. The brain/nervous system is mostly untouched, but the muscle and bone is increased. A simple hormone signal to increase cellular division, augmented by a temporal field to increase the division rate might explain most of this. The eyes are seemingly replaced-my books are in storage at the moment but I would like to check the clone monster eyes to see if they have pupils, or are they the same as the boost armor. I would assume they are, which would suggest it is 'improved' by moving the retina to the exterior. The Guyver eyes also emit light to aid in vision, I'm unsure about the clone monster. Other organs just don't have a direct human counterpart to base themselves off of, even though they fit perfect for the part of the host's body in which they are placed (momentum amplifiers on the forearms and lower legs). Devices such as the head beam and sonic orbs could easily be exuded material, in much the same way that a Oyster generates a pearl (I think other materials are exuded by the parasite, but are used by the host and such for cellular construction). What really has be intrigued are momentum amps, gravity gyros, and gravity focusers (pressure canon wrist pads)- these seem to be cellular tissue, with no human counterpart on any level. The two possibilities I see are that the Control Metal is providing detailed genetic information for the construction of these from the ground up, or that they are based on the natural biology of the parasite, and the Control Metal is providing instructions to make a more perfect parasite. This second possibility seems more likely to me, as I suspect that i it's natural state the parasite is transdimensional to a limited degree. The Sho Clone did -generate- matter for the purpose of constructing a body. This is an idea that fascinates me. A creature with 'organs' for gravitational related abilities. This is why I think that originally the parasite may have come from a star system that include a black hole. This seems to be a creature based so much on gravitational forces.

Oh great. so now we get to be insulted as 'state sponsored suppressionist', and 'unevolved'. Free speech is fine, but are you familiar with the term defamation? That part is illegal. Can you prove that we are trying to suppress you, or are even state sponsored? Would you like to get into a debate about how evolved we really are? Is there a rule on this board about insulting people? A real artist would make their point about society, explore it from the necessary angle, suggest the necessary changes, and move on. This thread has FOURTEEN PAGES of the same message repeated over and over again. Only now is there a new message cropping up, and that's backlash to complaints about it. I don't call this art, that's a blatant cop out, I call this masturbation. Free speech is fine, but don't call a chicken a swan.

I think Takaya designed it so that the tendrils are in the lace up places on Samurai armor. I like to think of it as a pearl. An oyster can secrete calcium in order to generate a pearl. The armor has shown the ability to regenerate itself from seemingly nothing, which suggests the ability to generate any kind of matter on demand, as well as structure it accordingly. I think it may just need a basic blueprint for the matter, which is why the guyver and the parasite base themselves on the host. I agree with Ryuki that the unit leaves traces of the armor within the host, but I don't think there are samples within each cell. The nucleus acts as a blueprint center for the cell, but the cell receives other instructions from hormones through the blood. The armor doesn't have to be inside each cell in order to control it, it just has to transmit hormone signals through the host's blood. Oh, and those metal plates on the unit-g, the visual data files book (written by Takaya) explained that they keep the organism in stasis. The exact translation was 'frozen time'. Since we have seen growth at incredible rates, and appear to have a stasis field generator, I suspect that the armor has traces that can accelerate the speed of molecular interaction (kind of like a reverse stasis field generator). I see no need to invade the host's cells, aside from an initial DNA collection, if that. But back to one of the very first questions in this thread, what is the difference between the tendrils and the main armor? In the unit-g, I don't think there is one. I think it might as well be viewed as gelatin, where the outer perimeter is stretching out to try and grab a victim. Only as an armor does it excrete materials and modify itself to form harder plates. Please bear in mind the word 'theory' here. This is based on what we've seen, but with liberal amounts of speculation as well

abnormal?

He has a daughter, and has been counseling for years. He's quoting decades of other people's research, and explaining where some of out modern techniques come from. 'Time out' is from the 50's, and is short for Time out of positive reinforcement, and was discovered to achieve short term obedience with lab rats... but we could not see the resentment of the relationship that develops in later years when applied to children. Letter and number grades don't really make better students, they get A students to start asking 'will it be on the test', as opposed to taking chances, making risks, and getting messy and interested in what they're learning. A lot of what he's describing sounds like he's developing social techniques for the Venus project, like what was mentioned in Zeitgeist.
